GT-R: How Nissan Created a MONSTER

1990 Nissan Skyline GT-R

1. Brutal.

My fellow Boomers are always citing false memories about how visceral muscle cars were in the '60s. They claim they don't make them like that anymore, and they're right.

They make them better. Faster, lighter, safer, and still able to give 25 heart stopping miles to every gallon. My Cadillac would leave any old GTO in the dust while the A/C blows cold. Their favorite bottom line is that in 30 years no one will want the cars they make today.

Except the Supra, NSX, this GTR, and a dozen other neo classics. Everybody looks back and wants the car they couldn't take to prom.

2. I could barely afford to keep up the muscle cars I had in the early '70s

and I sure as heck-fire can’t afford a GT-R today. I’m just glad I had a brief window to experience high torque.

3. another boss car from that era: 1990 Ferrari F40 (Leno's all time favourite Ferrari) last Enzo car

and this really shows how brutal a car it is (it freaks out the 2016 F1 champion Nico Rosberg)

4. I've seen this car IRL driving in Northern Virginia

So its definitely NOT a garage or trailer car. Its owner drives this car.

Seen a few other Skylines driving around NoVA and the DC area. I'm not an import guy, but if I had to have one (and had my choice) it would be the Skyline.

5. I like the 1999-2002 GF-BNR34 (R34) Skyline GT-R's too

2000 Skyline GT-R M⋅spec Nür (BNR34)
